For the 3rd Series of JCK
Original "Kagayaki", we have selected Carbon Steel blade
knives with Japanese traditional taste "Wa Style", jointly
worked with the talented Custom Knife Maker, Mr.
Asai.

"Kagayaki Aogami Super Custom
Damascus Wa-Bocho Series"

Since the beginning of JCK business,
we have been realizing the potential demands and popularities
of the carbon steel blade even in overseas market. As you know, the Carbon steel blade
requiresextra care and maintenance. Because it gets rust and
discolors easily. However, the experienced users including professional chefs prefer to chooseand use Carbon Steel blade kitchen knives because of its great advantage for the sharpness,
longer edge retention and ease of
resharpening.

Also, there have been many
requests and demands for Japanese Traditional style Wa style
knives such as Wa Gyuto,so it was one of our wishes to have a wide
selection of the blades with Japanese Traditional Wa
Style.

For this new project, we
have decided to work with Mr. Asai who has a great experience
and techniquein custom hammer forging and custom knife making
in Takefu City where is famous as "Echizen Uchihamono"(Hammer forged
knives).

In order to satisfy the serious users to
professionals,we selected the Japan's
Highest quality Hagane "Aogami Super" for the blade material without any
hesitation.The Aogami Super has
rich chemical compositions of high Carbon(1.40 – 1.50) with Chromium (0.30 – 0.50) and
Tungsten (2.00 – 2.50) added for extra durabilityand longer edge retention.

Wa Petty,
Nakiri, Wa Santoku, Wa Gyuto, total 6 kinds are now available
in Kagayaki Aogami Super Custom Damascus Wa Series. We plan to
expand this Series's selections in future. If you have any
request or opinion for new size, new blade kinds, please
contact and advise
us.

Since this series are custom made,
the production is always limited. Once the items will become
Sold Out, it takes approximate 45 days for the new batch to be
available. Under this circumstance, we will try our best to
keep the items available in our inventory for immediate
shipping, but please allow some extra times to deliver, if
sold out quicker than we planned.

PS:Kagayaki
Aogami Super Custom Damascus blades are made of Aogami Super
core forged with soft iron Damascus blade. There is
possibility to get rust or discolor on whole blades. They are
designed exactly for carbon steel lovers and serious users who
demand Japanese Hagane's sharpness, edge retention and
Japanese taste &
soul.

If you prefer easier maintenance, yet would like to try Aogami Super's
cutting performance, we recommend one of our best selling products Hiromoto Aogami Super
Series. Aogami Super
blade core sandwiched with soft stainless steel for the extra
durability and rust resistance. Blade core part has
possibility to get rust or discolor, but outer stainless steel
part has rust
resistance.

Notice about the blade spine thickness on
KagayakiAogami Super
knives

In case of the
hand hammer forging process, the spine near the handle remains
thicker than normal knives,but it is hand tapered down toward the cutting
edge and the blade tip by the experienced Forgesmith, Mr. Asai
for the best cutting
performance.
